Import and Export (Text Library)
The Import/Export tools in the Text Library application allow you to transfer text elements, groups, styles, and table styles between Centerpoint installations. This functionality is typically used for:
- Sharing premade content with other customers
- Moving selected groups or full configurations between projects
- Creating backups before making larger changes
All imported and exported data uses the JSON format.
Export Data
The Export Data dialog lets you download Text Library content based on a selected export scope. This provides flexibility so you can export only what you need.
Export Scope
When exporting, you can choose exactly which content to include:
-
Export All Data
Exports everything in the Text Library, including all text elements, groups, styles, and table styles. -
Specific Groups
You can select one or multiple groups.
Only the selected groups and the content inside them will be exported.
Any related styles or table styles used by these groups will also be included automatically.
This makes it easy to share a specific group setup with another customer without exposing the entire library.
Export Information
When generating an export:
- Data is exported in the new system JSON format
- The downloaded file includes all relevant metadata
- Styles and table styles linked to the selected groups are included automatically
- The file is downloaded as
.json
How to Export
- Go to Text Library → Settings → Export Data
- Open the Export Scope dropdown
- Select All Data or choose specific groups
- Click Export & Download
- Save the JSON file to your device
Use this file to back up your configuration or share it with another Centerpoint customer.
Import Data
The Import Data dialog allows you to bring existing content—either full libraries or partial group exports—into your Text Library.
Import Methods
You can import data in two ways:
-
Upload File
Upload a JSON file previously exported from another Centerpoint system. -
Paste JSON
Paste JSON directly into the text box.
Useful for quick transfers or sharing through support channels.
Import Notes
